NEW ORLEANS GREETINGS:
In New Orleans we know everyone,
With that said, we greet everyone as a friend rather
than a stranger
With smiles, waves, winks,
Anything really…
Hugs are also not uncommon,
In fact,
People usually jump at the chance to hug anyone and
everyone in New Orleans,
I guess other tourists may think it is weird but
here in NOLA,
It is simply tradition.
